Clean the beans under running water.Add them with a tbsp of salt in a pot. Fill up water so the water cover the beans. Let stay under water for at least 5 hours (recommended 12 hours or overnight)

After the 5 - 12 hours remove the water and flush the beans under water.

Add the beans, 1 tbsp salt and 1.5 liter water in a pot.Heat it up and let it simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours (the depends on the beans). Stir the beans now and then.

When the beans are soft (Al dente) add 1.5 tbsp spirit vinegar

When the beans are soft (Al dente) add 2 -3 tbsp syrup

Stir everything together if you will eat it direct and the brown beans are not tick enough you can add some corn flour. If you plan to eat the beans a day later or freeze it in this would not be needed though the beans will be thicker after a while.
